Terrorism is a menace that needs to be rooted out and in today’s world, data analytics might be the first line of defence in the fight against terrorism. WION talks to Mladen Stojic, President, HexagonGeospatial, to get insights into how geospatial technology is used to predict and prevent terror acts.

Using public social media data from twitter and Facebook, actions and announcements of terrorists – in this case ISIS – can be monitored and even be predicted. With his project #DataShield Wassim shares his idea of having a tool to identify oncoming threats and attacks in order to protect people and to induce preventive actions.
Wassim Zoghlami is a Tunisian Computer EngineeringSenior focussing on Business Intelligence and ERP with a passion for data science, software life cycle and UX. Wassim is also an award winning serial entrepreneur working on startups in healthcare and prevention solutions in both Tunisia and The United States.
During the past years Wassim has been working on different projects and campaigns about using data driven technology to help people working to uphold human rights and to promote civic engagement and culture across Tunisia and the MENA region. He is also the co-founder of the Tunisian Center for Civic Engagement, a strong advocate for open access to research, open data and open educational resources and one of the Global Shapers in Tunis.

Finding insights in terrorism trends in the United States (1970-2016) and using analytics to forecast terrorist attacks (1970-2026) in Tableau

Contributed by IsmaelJaimeCruz. He is currently in the NYCData ScienceAcademy 12 week full time Data Science Bootcamp program taking place between April 11th to July 1st, 2016. This post is based on his first class project - R visualization (due on the 2nd week of the program).
Over the past year, terrorist incidents have been growing by the numbers with attacks hitting different regions including Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. In November 2015, Paris was hit by the Islamic State and produced a death toll of at least 130, stirring sympathy and outrage from the global community. In other areas such as Nigeria, casualties from terrorist attacks were estimated to have been in the thousands.

Britain's counter-terrorism police have released a video advising holidaymakers on what to do if they experience a terrorist attack whilst abroad.
Detective Chief SuperintendentScott Wilson, the country's counter-terrorism coordinator, told Sky News on Monday that the decision to make the video was made in the wake of attacks such as those in Sousse, Tunisia, in 2015, in which 30 of the 38 victims were British.
The video advises people to "run, hide and tell," in that order.
Wilson said research showed people "want to be aware of what they should and shouldn't do" in the event of an attack, and the video is also designed to provide training to representatives of the UK travel industry.
He likened the video to the airline safety briefing that takes place before all flights and stressed that authorities were not trying to dissuade members of the public from going to certain holiday destinations.
"We would say 'look at the Foreign and Commonwealth (Office) website and read the advice that they put on that website, spend four-five minutes watching this video, then go on holiday with your family and enjoy the location,'" he said.

The BI UK Video team focuses on business, technology, strategy, and culture with an emphasis on unique storytelling and data that appeals to the next generation of leaders – the digital generation.

Description

First versions of the backglass showed the crew of the Enterprise dressed in the uniforms from the original Star Trek TV series. This was changed early in the production to show them dressed in single-color clothing to fit with the Star Trek Hollywood movie that was coming out at the same time as the game. Gameplay include 2 Flippers, 3 Pop bumpers, one Kick-out hole, one 4-bank drop targets and a free ball return lane.

Publication history

IDW's first title, Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Space Between, is a six-issue limited series launched January 2007. The Space Between is written by David Tischman and drawn by Casey Maloney. This storyline was collected in trade paperback form in September 2007.

The first-ever Global Terrorism Index (GTI) provides a metric for policymakers to track terrorism and its related factors in order to inform a practical debate about the future of terrorism. It presents a new methodology to assess the countries which have been most impacted by terrorism and highlights the countries that have seen the largest growth and reduction in terrorism activity over the last 10 years.
The GTI tracks changing trends in terrorism over time, as well as analyzing its different dimensions in terms of geographic activity, methods of attack, organizations involved and its national context. The index explores significant correlations with ot...

Britain's counter-terrorism police have released a video advising holidaymakers on what to do if they experience a terrorist attack whilst abroad.
Detective Chief SuperintendentScott Wilson, the country's counter-terrorism coordinator, told Sky News on Monday that the decision to make the video was made in the wake of attacks such as those in Sousse, Tunisia, in 2015, in which 30 of the 38 victims were British.
The video advises people to "run, hide and tell," in that order.
Wilson said research showed people "want to be aware of what they should and shouldn't do" in the event of an attack, and the video is also designed to provide training to representatives of the UK travel industry.
He likened the video to the airline safety briefing that takes place before all flights and stressed that authorities were not trying to dissuade members of the public from going to certain holiday destinations.
"We would say 'look at the Foreign and Commonwealth (Office) website and read the advice that they put on that website, spend four-five minutes watching this video, then go on holiday with your family and enjoy the location,'" he said.

Banned Star Trek TNG clip from "The High Ground" (HD)

This scene was banned in the UK until 2007 because it talks about Irish unification in the context of terrorism.
Uploading this because the version people usually refer to ( http://youtu.be/CHsoPPynIIc ) is rather low-quality.
Ripped this from my own legitimately purchased copy of TNGSeason 3 on Blu-Ray. The video is not monetized and is minimal in length.

Predicting and preventing terrorism with Geospatial data

Terrorism is a menace that needs to be rooted out and in today’s world, data analytics might be the first line of defence in the fight against terrorism. WION talks to Mladen Stojic, President, HexagonGeospatial, to get insights into how geospatial technology is used to predict and prevent terror acts.

Using public social media data from twitter and Facebook, actions and announcements of terrorists – in this case ISIS – can be monitored and even be predicted. With his project #DataShield Wassim shares his idea of having a tool to identify oncoming threats and attacks in order to protect people and to induce preventive actions.
Wassim Zoghlami is a Tunisian Computer EngineeringSenior focussing on Business Intelligence and ERP with a passion for data science, software life cycle and UX. Wassim is also an award winning serial entrepreneur working on startups in healthcare and prevention solutions in both Tunisia and The United States.
During the past years Wassim has been working on different projects and campaigns about using data driven technology to help people working to uphold human rights and to promote civic engagement and culture across Tunisia and the MENA region. He is also the co-founder of the Tunisian Center for Civic Engagement, a strong advocate for open access to research, open data and open educational resources and one of the Global Shapers in Tunis.
At TEDxMünster Wassim will talk about public social media data mining for counter-terrorism and his project idea DataShield.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

Ismael Jaime Cruz: Exploring Global Terrorism Data

Contributed by IsmaelJaimeCruz. He is currently in the NYCData ScienceAcademy 12 week full time Data Science Bootcamp program taking place between April 11th to July 1st, 2016. This post is based on his first class project - R visualization (due on the 2nd week of the program).
Over the past year, terrorist incidents have been growing by the numbers with attacks hitting different regions including Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. In November 2015, Paris was hit by the Islamic State and produced a death toll of at least 130, stirring sympathy and outrage from the global community. In other areas such as Nigeria, casualties from terrorist attacks were estimated to have been in the thousands.
